I had saline implants 12 years ago and have had no problems or complications with them. However, I am considering having them removed and a breast lift done. I am guessing I would be a size C without the implants. As I have gained weight over the years, I am presently a bra size DDD with a spillover. By having the implants removed, would I be left with indentations in my breasts, if so, could I have fat taken from another area of my body and injected into my breasts to get rid of the indentations? Would this be my only option if I no longer wanted to have implants?
Based on your description of DDD breast size removal of implants and a breast lift may be all that you need. I doubt you will have significant dents or deformity. If you do have noticeable dents small amounts of fat grafting can be done at a later date to fill them. Wait 6 months to see if you develop any deformity before having fat grafting.
